Crashing Issues & Music Glitches

Hello, I'm running version 2.1 and every time I try to load a Doom game, the engine freezes on the main menu of whichever Doom I launch and I am unable to navigate the menu or start a game. I am able to play Heretic and Hexen, but the music in both games is glitched and choppy. I attached my doomsday.out here: https://pastebin.com/mCYPLEp9

Have you tried changing the audio backend settings to see if that helps with the music? You appear to be using FMOD (which is generally good and the default), but you could try SDL_mixer instead. There are also music packs with MP3 versions of the music if the FluidSynth/MIDI is not working for you.
